5 Things Your Gynecologist Wants You To Know: Getting Pregnant

"im not brand loyal to any brand it need to contain" pringles commercial starts
gotcha they need to contain pringles XD lmao srry the timing of that commercial was too good XD

additional advice i got from my maternity nurse mom: stay laying down after sex/keep the sperm inside for at least an hour (preferably 2) to increase chances of getting pregnant

My boyfriend and I have been trying to conceive since May of last year. Both of us vaped, and my usage was so heavy I needed a new vape every week. I stopped drinking early because it made me sick. Four months ago my bf started taking apple cider vinegar to help with kidney stones and overall wellness. One month ago I finally had a positive test...I'll be ten weeks alomg this Tuesday and I'm so excited to bring a new life into the world!

I sorted by newest comments though this is relevant the "Ovulation" episode. Great info. I never hear anyone talk about that something simple, happens often and can cost you thousands of hours of emotional, financial and physical pain. And it is so obvious to me after having tried since age 23 to conceive with no luck and my husband at sea in the Navy half the time. My Mom flew me home to Fl (That was 1985) to have exploratory surgery from an old, smart but cranky doctor mom had even used and she is 41 years older than I. He at least thought to open me up. after no luck with any other tests. Turns out it was (back then), "An almost unheard of bicornate uterus with one side being half size and the other having not developed much but a thick lining in between and no was for that side's tube and ovary to get an egg to it so just had to count on one side doing the magic in a tiny uterus in a tiny 105 pound young wife who could eat anything back then and never can a pound. I was 5' 3 1/2" tall. The old doctor said, "No way can you have babies after I came to him because the first time I ask my OBGYN in FL the doctor said, "Wow, mind if I bring in some colleagues they'll never see this again. I've been sickly all my life and actually it took a long time for me to learn to say, "Actually, no I would rather not let 10 interns come in and do that to me." I just let them do it, followed him to his office where he said the following, "I am afraid they are going to have to cut it all apart in there and put it back together right. ???? I left in shock. Finally we found a good specialist and he was as appalled at what they had already put me through. Back then all Navy wives had kids in their early 20's. We felt lost. So strangely enough he had the drawings the old doctor sent but decided to do what was for me horrendously painful Hysterosalpingogram (I have an excruciating false cervix at the top of a smallish vagina and they were trying to clamp a tube on it before they figured out there was a real cervix there too. So they looked and said no access to the uterus from the tubes so sorry no babies. I went home, had a break down and s lot of prayer because it was the only thing I ever felt I would be so good at. Really good and excel at. I felt I knew her before she was even conceived. So three days after praying like I have never prayed before I ended up in an emergency ER with a horrible throwing up bout. I usually cant stop once it stops and it terrifies me and requires admittance due to the fact that only 1 kidney developed on the same side. Dehydration!!! "Congrats you are not having a virus you are having a baby." Then we explained we couldn't and he said you will probably miscarry by 3 months. Then my special doctor came in and said he couldn't tell us congratulations because HE said, "you will probably miscarry by 3 months." After 3 months it was waiting to not loose her at 6 months when I did start to leak amniotic fluid but they gave me a shot to stop it, my husband fainted and we later learned she actually was at the limit at fitting in there. So her heat popped down into the cervix and plugged the hole causing everyone to tell her, "You plugged your own leak." It worked. 7 years after our first date in High School she was born by c section and is a near genius mechanical Engineer. The point being strange and seeming impossible things do happen but telling me all those horrible things which made me lie flat in bed my whole pregnancy (Worth it!) was all cause simply by the fact that...When we go to the dry cleaners we sometimes get back dress shirts with starched arms and the sleeves STICK together. That's it. The Hysterosalpingogram fixed that as they ran the die through! I lost 4 of my 5 babies to blood clots (Hughes! Antiphospholipid which also needs discussed. So never just accept one strange reason for infertility and all the failure you see ahead. As they said, doctors can be wrong and are sometimes. Thanks for explaining these things about little known topics. They happen a lot! Every pregnancy is different but now that 25 year old little girl has a healthy gorgeous model looking intelligent child and she gave me a perfect little blond curly haired tall and very fit and smart (Genius level actually) grandson and precocious a precious little blonde beauty. My husband is a swede so Viking genes all over the place. Stay upbeat everyone. Never say never. I am 62 and my best friend was 40 when I helped her adopt a child. I would post this on the episode about the double uterus if I could just find it! :)

I take folic acid for low folates only diagnosed in my sixties but always had this problem I don't know how my sons are so well

Does the caffeine thing actually stand today as something that effects fertility though?

I seem to remember i red while trying that larger studies and meta studied showed no effect. Whats the latest consensus?

Almost nobody will accept me for a pre-conception visit.. must try and fail for a year before being seen

How do I get pregnant could I get pregnant with him anytime soon or on accident idk

I am 15 years old and I have a young bf

The obvious answer to increase your fertility is to take in more Selenium, with some Multivitamin pill every evening. Lack of Selenum is the most common cause of infertility. But since there are so many people who earn money on so many other treatments and medications, they avoid telling you this... Both participants should take this...!

I've been taking pink stork prenatal with DHA and they are pretty gentle on the stomach. Considering I'm usually nauseated my B12 alone that's a positive.

Young ? Ugh . Iam 52 years old but I want another baby !

Thanks for the helpful advice. I'm going to ignore the first one though, since my donor has to come over to my house every month for self insemination I want to try to time it close to my ovulation. So I've been tracking the regularity of my periods for a few months and am going to start using ovulation tests.

Can you help Us with my wife to having a baby

Would not vaping include vapable cbd oil. I do it to help keep seizures under control. Every now and then not often.

A video about how to get pregnant?
My "I don't have money, live on my own, don't want kids right now" 20 yo ass: uhuu interesting I'm going to put these on my watch later list

I'm 23 , don't have any health issues just have irregular cycle.. will it be hard for me to conceive?

We've been trying for 6 months now, I had a chemical pregnancy/early miscarriage last month. Now it just feels like It'll never happen for us 😢

It's like that, no matter if you’re 40 or whatever, after reading Dobbie Nerkstrol's guide, I ended up pleasantly surprised. Within 60 days anyone can get pregnant, feeling the changes in your body the first few weeks. After go’ogling her I understood it's not a miracle kind of thing like the title suggests, but you can bet you'll boost your chances.

Just want to leave my heartfelt thanks here as I had to come across you MD Jones first, to feel seen and cnfirmed that something must be terribly wrong with my incredibly painful and intense in loss of blood periods. Imagine no gyn I went to in my German town believed or truly helped me. Finally, countless inflammations having been unrecognized for ages plus a cyst surgery I had to insist on, two more fell out respectively vanished after a change in wheelchair and diet were the game-changer. 😊 We now reconsider conceiving as I feel healthier and more confident than ever. Keep up the excellent work!

What about switching caffeine to decaf? Would that help at all? @mamadoctorjones

There is a gummy Iron made for women that is made to be gentle on the stomach. I get it from Amazon for about $17 a bottle, though they offer discounts if you buy more then one bottle at a time... I am 45 and at 21 with my second child, the DR complained I was anemic. By the end of the pregnancy, I was taking 3 of the old school horse pills Iron was, 3x a day... Yes 9 pills a day, and still anemic, the nurse tried to scare me by saying I would bleed out of the table. Like fear would make me suddenly absorb iron better. 20 years later, I finally had a doctor explain anemia in a way it had not before, that it is more then just headaches, bruises, and being cold. My iron absorption rate was down to 2%. Needless to say I was not in good shape. I was sent to a hematologist and iron infusion therapy. I strongly encourage anyone who has been anemic for a long time and was taught its not a big deal, to look up iron infuison therapy, for the other side of the story of what anemia can do to you. For whatever reason my body acts like iron is attacking me and it must be gotten rid of fast. Imodium becomes my best friend. The gummies don't mess me up. For me that is huge. The downside is they are fruit-flavored but still iron so raspberry with a aftertaste of blood, mmmm. yeah it would make more sense if it was beef flavored, lol/

Does having a bath after sex decrease your chances to conceive that cycle?

This was exactly what I was needing -thank you! 🤍

Mama doctor jones, if you have time can you discuss about chemical pregnancy ? I love your channel 💕 thank you

My best friend told me she is pregnant on accident bcz she was raped by her boyfriend 😢

This video just made my baby fever so much worse.

Question -Is saliva a good option for lubrication if you want to get pregnant? Again, thank you so much for all the time you put into this video. It took me a long time to figure this out on my own. I unfortunately had extremely bad experiences with most doctors when I was trying to conceive for 10 years. I am now divorced, and all my pregnancies ended in miscarriages, but this is helpful for the future. <3

I'm 50-50 on having a kid. I live a relatively healthy lifestyle, the only drug I do is caffeine, and I'm cosmetically overweight. (I'm on the upper edge of optimal.) My big issue is I'm mid-30s with hypothyroidism, which I know would make me more likely to miscarry.

IMHO, Moms are just amazing. They join two microscopic cells and in nine months they give the world a brand new human being! Thank-you to all the Moms out there!

I would like to see the data on the affects of vaping. I haven’t seen anything showing that nicotine alone hurts your risk of getting pregnant. Just the other million chemicals in cigarettes and tobacco.

I hope this year me and my partner can receive a good news that I am pregnant. Been trying for a year now

I’m on nexplanon and I want to start a family I want to know how long does it take to get pregnant.

You know what's probably a good sperm friendly lube to use when TTC?

Baby oil. 🤣 I'll show myself out...

When I was trying to get pregnant my midwife suggested taking Robitusin the first day of menstruation through ovulation. It thins the mucus. IT WORKED! I have 7 friends I suggested the same trick to. Pregnant the first month of Robitusin! None of us had severe fertility problems but we were 4-8 months into trying.

I wish there was a doctor who could give some advice on how to have sex and not be in constant fear of getting pregnant. I'm terrified with the condom and birth control pills, so I don't have sex anymore and I'm calm. There's no 100% safe sex😢

I've been trying for over a year and nothing 😩 I had a miscarriage back in 2019 and I've been tracking ovulation and it's just not happening idk what I'm doing wrong

I tried the legs and hips up afterwards. We are trying for a year now and i got all the vitamins from my gyn. I thought about trying for fertilily. Do you have this in america? It pushes the sperms more to the egg.... apparently raises chances to up to 43%...

now, before i watch the video, i need to ask: Why would someone ask how to get pregnant?
I mean, isnt it obvious? (or at least i thought so)

I had a miscarriage and the doctor told me before any pregnancy to come get tested. Do you know what tests are conducted? I am scared when it comes to doctors and vagina examination and all these these. Fibroids were also seen in the last ultrasound.

Smoking also decreases men's fertility, so it's advised that the man who wants to become a father also gives up smoking at least 2 months before trying to conceive, since this is a period in which the sperm is recycled in the organism.

Can you please please explain more into anicephly? My angel baby niece had it. I didn't know it was a thing.

I’m one of the exceptions to the rule bc of my age and i was diagnosed with adenmyosis a year n a half ago and was told that i could have difficulty conceiving and I’m now 30 weeks pregnant

Can you do topics on ttc with PCOS with someone who has a longer cycle

Thank you! I want to get pregnant and this is very helpful.

60% of these people even did not have sex. What about this point?

Does vit d usually help, doc says vit d is low
